What if I'm looking to change careers or make a radical career shift?
Career change is a topic close to our hearts at Welcome to the Jungle. Depending on the type of career change you're considering, our tools can help you in different ways.
90° career change: our matching supports you
If your pivot is close to your current field (for example, moving from developer to tech project manager, or from consultant to product manager), our matching system relies as much on your skills as on your current job title. If your new role requires skills you already have, matching will suggest relevant results to help you open this new chapter.
Radical career change: a work in progress
If your pivot is more radical (leaving a technical role for a creative career, completely changing industries without directly transferable skills), our matching is not yet fully optimized to support you in this process. This is something we are actively working on throughout 2026.
In the meantime, we recommend consulting our AI Candidate Coach: it can guide you on possible training paths, career options, and the concrete steps to successfully make your transition.
